Recently, Rohit led Team India to a thumping 3-0 T20I series victory over West Indies. Despite the absence of regular skipper Virat Kohli and veteran wicketkeeper MS Dhoni, he led the team from the front to inflict a whitewash over the defending Twenty20 champions.
During the second T20I in Lucknow, Rohit notched up the world record fourth century in the shortest format to lead the foundation for India's stunning 71-run series-clinching victory.
Rohit Sharma will now be seen back in action on the tough tour of Australia, which kickstarts with the first T20I at Brisbane on November 21.
